  Quetzaltenango Temple and Lake Atitlan - February 2023 Wednesday, we went to Quetzaltenango, over four hours away, to attend the temple and to see that part of Guatemala. .It was a beautiful day and we very much enjoyed our time in this beautiful temple.

Humanitarian Service in Central America A blessing that comes from our service in Central America is the opportunity to be aware of, and on occasion, support charitable work done by the Church for a number of organizations. These are examples from September. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints made a delivery of medical equipment to the Ministry of Health of Nicaragua consisting of aluminum thermoses for storage of liquid nitrogen in which some 12,984 samples of infectious agents (viruses, bacteria, or any type of pathogen) can be stored. This was done with the aim of joining forces with the National Health System of Nicaragua in the fight against COVID-19 and other diseases. In solidarity with the people affected by the landslides in Colonia Guillen in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, from different areas of the city, joined in a labor of love by collecting food, clothing, personal hygiene kits, water and toys.
